  • Add the sliced onions to the bowl of liquid and stir gently. Press down on the onions so that they’re submerged in the liquid. 
  • Cover bowl with a clean towel or lid. Set aside the onions to rest on the counter at room temperature for 1 hour before serving or transferring the bowl to the fridge for longer storage.
